The most highly anticipated match on this card was undoubtedly the main event WarGames match which saw the Undisputed Era take on Ricochet, Pete Dunne and the War Raiders.

This match took a while to get going as the ring would eventually fill up with superstars. Bobby Fish double locking Pete Dunne inside the cage and throwing the key away was a tremendous bit of psychology which gave the Undisputed Era a brief numbers advantage in the match. The officials used bolt cutters to get Dunne out of the cage and that was when the match really got going.

There were a number of dangerous spots in this match most notably the 720-degree backflip off the top of the cage by Ricochet which wiped everyone out. In the end it was Dunne, Ricochet and the War Raiders coming out on top after Dunne hit Cole with Bitter End and Ricochet came off the top rope with a splash.

An extremely hard fought match for which all the competitors deserve a lot of credit, at times it felt a bit clustered, such was the amount of competitors in the match but nonetheless this match delivered. It was Ricochet who comes out as the star competitor from this match, his double flip off the top of the cage in addition to his splash from the top which scored the win for his team certainly made this his night.
